London Laxity Of Conversation.

A tendency of the present day Is the
laXity of conversation permitted by manv
ladies in society in their male friend
| This evil is one of very rapid growth, and
has spread i'll many cases from the married
women even to the girls, who think that
they can make themselves as agreeable to
the men rs their successful rivals. by
adopting the same style and allowing the
same freedom Of conversation. This. to u
great extent. is attributable to the rage
for beautiful women which for some time
now has been dominant i'll London society ::
for now a woman, if she is extremely
lovely and can get an Introduction, is sure
to he a star in society for a time, no mat
ter what her position may Ice ard whether
it entities her To be feted and made much
OF 10y the great ones of the land. and
wishing 20 make her reign as successful rs
possible until Il brighter star arises and
eclipses her, permits and encourages that
loose kind OF conversation that is SO at
tractive TO many men. This rage for
beauty has been a great bane IN London
society for some time, and has rightly
been source of annoyance 10 the younger
unmarried members Of families who hold
their position by right. for it is an un-
doubted hardship for them to feel them
selves shelved and neglected by the men
in favor Of the fashionable beauties, and
some Of the sillier Of them think that they
can improve their position 10y copying the
ways. manners and conversation Of these
pratical craft.-London Saturday Review.

An Air Fulfilling Apparatua,

The improved French apparatus for
purifying air by !mparting to ii a rotary
motion appears to be a success. This de
vice consists of two horizontal concentric
cylinders, placed in connection with a fan,
these being fixed and turned with a
spiadle, and The whole is inclosed in a
casting. The cylinders are closed at the
ends, except for a hole permitting the
passage Of air drawn by a fan, and as the
air passes through the conceutric SPACE
between the drums, il is caused to rotate
with them by the presence of feathers run
ming lDngitudinaIly on the inside of the
outer cylinder
The spindle which carries the whole AZ
rangenent is hollow, and ii thus serves to
bring the water which is allowed to escape
therefrom inside the drum by means Of
fine holes, which project it in the form of
rain against the inside of the inner cylin-
der. also perforated. and the water again
escapes from it and is projected against
the inside OF the outer cylinder, over which
il forms thin coating. The motions of
the air and water are as nearly as possi-
ble in opposite directions The water,
after il has been sufficiently exposed to
TIE air. is allowed to escape, and is drawn
Of by means of siphon. 1t is impossi-
bic for any air To pass through the appar-
atus without being washed and its solid
impurities removed by centrifugal action.
and the proportion of water required
may be varied. as found necessary with
reference to the particular character or
condition of the air.-Boston Transcript.

about that time used TO refer TO him as
Sweet William. He wore his black hair
very long, his pants in his boots, sham
bling gait and an unkempt air generally
that marked him as the most unpromis-
ing youth in that section of the rowdy
west. He had no pride about him. and it
did not appear that he would ever amount
10 anything.
About this time he fell in love with a
dashing little school teacher and proposed
70 her. Everybody but Bill knew his fate
long beforehand. They knew he WIS des-
tined To get iioOred. but Bill had no ink
ling of il. When he received a negative
reply he was utterly crushed, and remained
50 for days. He was perfectly collapsed
and lifeless. But after week he began
10 brace up. The rough frontiersmen had
ridiculed his grammar and poked fun at
him on everything Bill bought some
books and began Ia post up
He was soon thereafter in the field as
scout, and three years after. when he
came back, he was the most changed man

victory. The girl was his mascot Had
